ABUS Padlock brass 75/50

The brass padlock 75 has an automatic locking system and a reversible key.

  • Exceptionally easy to use - the key fits no matter which way round it is
  • Self-locking: locking without key by pushing down the shackle
  • Paracentric keyway for increased protection against manipulation

WITH REVERSIBLE KEY

The brass padlock 75 has a reversible key.

Padlock 75 is great for securing doors, gates, cabinets, lockers, toolboxes, basements, sheds, switchgear, and more from theft. The lock body is made of solid brass, the shackle of hardened steel with NANO PROTECT™ corrosion protection. A high-precision locking mechanism is installed, which operates with a reversible key. To secure items of medium value or objects at moderate risk of theft, sizes 75/30 to 75/40 are suitable. For objects of higher value, or if the risk of theft is high, we recommend choosing a padlock between sizes 75/50 and 75/60. The 75IB variant is also weatherproof and therefore a sensible solution if you want to protect your belongings in sea and port areas.

Technology:

  • Solid lock body made from brass
  • Hardened steel shackle with NANO PROTECT™ plating for extreme corrosion resistance
  • Shackle made from hardened steel with NANO PROTECT™ plating
  • High precision reversible keyway with up to 150 000 key differs
  • Double bolted
  • Self-locking: locking without key by pushing down the shackle
  • Paracentric keyway for increased protection against manipulation
  • Inner components made from non-corrosive materials
  • 75IB/40 and 75IB/50: key-retaining

Operation and use:

  • 75/30 - 75/40: To secure valuables/goods of medium value or at an average risk of theft
  • 75/50 - 75/60: To secure valuables/goods of greater value or at a high risk of theft
  • To secure doors, gates, cupboards, lockers, tool boxes, cellar windows, sheds, switchboards
  • 75IB: Ideal for use in coastal and port areas

Variants:

  • Sizes: 1 3/16", 1 37⁄64", 1 31⁄32", 2 23⁄64"
  • Additional Shackle Lengths: 1 3⁄16", 1 37⁄64", 1 31⁄32"

ABUS 75/50-KA – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Which ABUS 75 size should I use for a high-value storage unit versus a tool cabinet?
ABUS splits the 75 brass series by risk level. Sizes 75/30 through 75/40 are meant for goods of medium value or an average theft risk, which covers most interior cabinets, lockers and toolboxes. The 75/50 and 75/60 are what ABUS points to for higher-value goods or a high theft risk, so a storage unit, a yard gate or a switchgear enclosure belongs on the 75/50 or larger. The 75/50 body measures 50mm wide.
2) Can I get ABUS 75/50 padlocks all keyed to one key for a building?
Yes. The 75/50 is sold keyed alike (KA) so one key opens every lock in the group, or keyed different (KD) where each lock has its own key. Property managers standardizing gates, meter rooms and storage across a site normally take KA; keyed different suits tenant-issued locks where you don't want one key opening everything. The reversible keyway supports up to 150,000 key differs, so a large keyed-different order stays unique.
3) Can ABUS 75/50 padlocks be put on a master key system or take an interchangeable core?
No. The 75/50 uses ABUS's own high-precision reversible cylinder built into the lock, and it's ordered keyed alike or keyed different, not cored. If the requirement is that padlocks join the facility's existing master key system, you need a small-format or large-format interchangeable core padlock instead: the Sargent 60-858-2 is a removable core body, and the Medeco 521 G8R ships less a pop-out cylinder in a solid stainless body so it can be cylinder-matched to your system.
4) What is a brass-body padlock equivalent to the ABUS 75/50?
The Medeco 5260 is a 52 Series brass body padlock with a 7/16 inch shackle diameter in a satin chrome finish, so it holds the same brass-body construction as the ABUS 75/50 in a heavier shackle. The ABUS 75/50 uses an 8 mm shackle diameter with a 50 mm body width. Where the ABUS runs a reversible paracentric keyway, the Medeco 5260 uses M3 key technology, so the two key to different systems and are not keyed together on the same key.
5) Which padlock should I use instead of the ABUS 75/50 if I need it on a facility master key system with interchangeable cores?
Use the Sargent 60-858-2, a removable core padlock with a 2 inch stainless steel shackle in the 758/858 Series. A removable core lets a facility locksmith core the padlock to the same system as the doors, which the ABUS 75/50 cannot do - it is supplied on its own reversible key, keyed alike or keyed different. For a Sargent padlock on the standard fixed cylinder instead, the 858 is a non-key-retaining padlock with a stainless steel shackle in US4 satin brass.
6) Is there a padlock like the ABUS 75/50 that keeps the key captive until the lock is closed?
The Sargent 758 is a key retaining standard padlock in a US4 satin brass finish - the key cannot be withdrawn while the shackle is open, which is how facilities stop a padlock being left hanging unlocked on a gate or cage. The ABUS 75/50 works the opposite way: it is self-locking, so the shackle latches by pushing it down without the key, and the key comes out with the lock open. If a padlock that releases its key freely is what you want, the Sargent 858 and the Sargent 82-856 are both non-key-retaining.
7) What padlock holds up better than the ABUS 75/50 in a coastal or washdown location?
The Medeco 521 G8R is a weather-tight padlock with a solid stainless steel body, supplied less the pop-out cylinder, and the Medeco 54515G XT is rated for indoor and outdoor use with a 5/16 inch shackle diameter. Both move the body itself to a corrosion-resistant material. The ABUS 75/50 is a brass body with a hardened steel shackle carrying NANO PROTECT plating and non-corrosive inner components; ABUS points salt-air and port applications to the weatherproof 75IB variant rather than the standard 75.
8) Will a Schlage KS23 brass padlock take the same key as an ABUS 75/50?
No. The Schlage KS23D/KS23F is a 20 Series brass padlock with a 5/16 inch diameter shackle - same brass body idea, but it keys into the Schlage system, while the ABUS 75/50 runs an ABUS reversible paracentric keyway. Two brass padlocks of similar size are not interchangeable on one key ring; a site standardizing on one key has to pick a single brand. The KS23 also carries a 5/16 inch shackle against the 8 mm shackle diameter on the ABUS 75/50, so confirm the hasp eye clears the larger diameter before swapping.
9) Will a brass ABUS 75/50 hold up outdoors on a gate?
Outdoors it's fine for general exterior use: solid brass body, hardened steel shackle with NANO PROTECT plating for corrosion resistance, and internal components made from non-corrosive materials. What it is not is a marine-grade lock. For coastal, dockside or port environments ABUS points to the 75IB version instead, which is the weatherproof build in the same family.
10) Does the ABUS 75/50 lock automatically when you snap it shut, or do you need the key?
It's self-locking. Push the shackle down and it locks without the key, so a maintenance tech can secure a gate or panel one-handed with the key already in a pocket. The key is reversible too, meaning it goes into the cylinder either way up, which matters more than people expect on a lock mounted overhead or in a dark riser.
11) Does the ABUS 75/50 keep the key captive while it's unlocked?
No. Within the 75 family, key retention is called out only on the 75IB/40 and 75IB/50. If you need the key trapped in the lock while it's open, which is standard practice for lockout points and equipment where a loose key walks off, choose one of those or a key-retaining lock from another line, such as the Sargent 758 in satin brass.
12) How well does the ABUS 75/50 resist picking and prying?
Two things carry the security on the 75/50: a paracentric keyway, which is the narrow winding profile that makes pick and tension tool entry difficult, and a double-bolted shackle, meaning it's locked on both the heel and the toe so cutting or prying one side alone won't release it. The mechanism itself is a high-precision reversible cylinder.
13) What are the alternatives to an ABUS 75/50 brass padlock for a commercial facility?
Depends on what the building already runs. If your site is standardized on an interchangeable core system, the Sargent 60-858-2 is a removable core padlock with a 2 inch stainless shackle, so it takes the same cores as the rest of your openings, something a fixed-cylinder lock like the 75/50 can't do. For another brass-body lock with a heavier shackle, the Medeco 5260 in the 52 Series uses a 7/16 inch shackle and M3 key technology, and the Schlage KS23D/KS23F is a brass padlock with a 5/16 inch shackle. The 75/50's shackle is 8mm, about 5/16 inch, so the Schlage is the closest match on shackle size.
14) Does an electronic padlock replace the ABUS 75/50 for a remote gate we need an audit trail on?
The Medeco 54515G XT is an electronic indoor/outdoor padlock, non-key retaining, with a 5/16 inch shackle diameter and cylinder included - that is the one to specify when the site needs credential-based access rather than a cut key. It is not a drop-in for the ABUS 75/50, which is a mechanical brass padlock on a reversible key with up to 150,000 key differs; the two do not share a key or a programming path, so a site running 75 series padlocks would carry the XT as a separate system.
15) What is the difference between the Sargent 82-856 and the ABUS 75/50 for a high-security storage cage?
The Sargent 82-856 is a KESO Series non-key-retaining padlock with a 2 inch by 2 inch brass case and a stainless steel shackle, so it draws on the KESO key system for the cylinder. The ABUS 75/50 is a brass-body commercial padlock using a high-precision reversible paracentric keyway with double-bolted shackle retention. Both are brass-cased; the split is the key system behind them, which decides whether the padlock can join an existing facility keying program.
16) How many keys come with an ABUS 75 padlock and can I order extras?
The 75 series is also offered in a package with 5 keys, which is what you want when several techs or tenants need access to the same lock. The key is reversible, so there's no wrong way to insert it, and on a keyed alike order every lock in the group takes the same key.
